OMC Outdrive question

[codyandamber]

Can anyone tell me what type of drive this is by looking at it<br /><br /> http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/e...1283&item=2474996196&sspagename=STRK:MESSE:IT <br /><br />It was attached to a 140hp OMC I/O.<br /><br />We are not sure of the year. <br /><br />Thanks for any help in advance.

Anywhere from 73 to 77, if it is truly an electric shift.

Rainmaker; From that angle shouldn't you be able to see the shift arm? I don't see one, maybe just me.

Ben,<br />Don't know. I've never worked on the mechanical shift stringers. More experience than I want to admit with the electric shift models (shouldn't have spent so much time and money on it).<br /><br />I can't see the wire in the picture. So I was reluctant to say for sure.<br />mike

A little late but it is an electric shift as it has no propshaft splines ad uses only a shear pin to turn the prop.

As pictured,that is an electric shift with no upper gear housing.Kinda need em both unless you've got that upper lying around.
